nwjs
[0.13.4-sdk] App.dataPath returns a path with a directory named default at the end
OS: Mac OS X (El captain) nw.js version: 0.13.4-sdk
App.dataPath is returning ~/Library/Application Support/<name>/Default while the docs say it should return ~/Library/Application Support/<name>
The name of the package from package.json is devlog.
There is a directory named Default in that location and has files related to preferences, cookies etc.
Confirming this on Windows 10 x64 nw.js 0.13.2-sdk. nw.App.dataPath returns %LOCALAPPDATA%/<name>/User Data/Default. Should be %LOCALAPPDATA%/<name>.
same behavior in nw0.14.2-sdk. I have noticed one more thing on Mac. In nw0.12.3 folders like 'Local Storage', 'GPU Cache' were created in 'library/Application Support/[app name]/' but, from nw0.13 onwards they are getting created in 'library/Application Support/[app name]/Default/'. So this may be the reason of why App.dataPath is returning the new path. It's just an observation. I haven't thoroughly looked into it.
why is this changed indeed? We have User Data/Default at the end, like:
on Windows 10
C:\Users[username]\AppData\Local[app name]\User Data\Default
while it use to be:
C:\Users[username]\AppData\Local[app name]\
Now we have to run some manual migration ...
As chromium does, stores all the application data in the default profile folder.
App.dataPath returns a path with a directory named Default at the end on nwjs 0.21.6.
This issue is still present in v0.90.0. Since this has been the behavior since v0.13.0, should the docs be updated to mark this as the default behaviour?
